2016 GLOBAL FORECAST UPDATE FOR FEBRUARY 2016
February 29, 2016
Isaiah 21:6
"For this has YHWH said to me, Go, set a watchman, let him declare what he sees"
Ezekiel 33:7
"Son of man, I have made you a watchman for the people of Israel; so hear the word I speak and give them warning from me."
This is the February update to our 2016 Global Forecast. As we stated in the original forecast in December 2015, 2016 will be a momentous year for mankind; what is brewing today will continue to jolt us well into 2017 and beyond.
We stated in the 2016 Global Forecast that the elites, as well as the lower classes – and everyone in between - will be influenced by the spirit of fear. In the January update we cited 20 headlines showing how fear influenced people’s actions. This month’s headline events have pretty much incited the same:

In January we reported that signs of an ailing financial market continue with 3 financial institution branch closures. We also reported that 3 other financial institution branches were letting go a total of 5,400 employees. Additionally, 1 bank filed for bankruptcy. We also reported hundreds of thousands of job losses for January. It’s a bit amazing how while these events are happening around us, we are still fed reports that the economy is getting better. In fact the “official word” from the government paints a picture that the unemployment rate is going down, and the economy is bouncing back. This is a great smoke screen as we could not be further from the truth. We may find a more complete picture of our economic state in our “Intensification of Economic Unrest, Since Feast of Trumpets (Sept. 13th 2015)”. For February we cite the following as further signs of the massive global economic collapse forecasted that will easily rival the great depression:

These headlines suggest that we’re on the verge of something horrific, and are not being told. The overwhelming majority of people are completely unaware of what is forming, and will be completely unaware you know what “hits the fan.” In our book “The Life Times and Teachings of a Savior” we stated that starting September 13, 2015 we would see a growing intensity in the forces of nature among other disturbances. Since that time we have seen just that. Granted, Mother Nature has always wreaked havoc from time to time, however, now the frequency and destructive power behind these weather events have increased. Take a look at the following, and draw your own conclusions:

In the 2016 Global Forecast we said: “There will be earthquakes in various places.” This is a quote from Mark 13:8, which was drawing the reader’s attention to earthquakes as one of various signs of the end of the age. In January 2016 the USGS reported 9,061 earthquakes. According to them, there were 7,869 more earthquakes recorded during February 2016. 618 were above a magnitude 4.0. The following are the 18 that were above a magnitude 5.7:

In the 2016 Global Forecast we wrote: “Expect things to get pretty intense as there is a transformation on the way. We will feel the squeeze of pressure on a much greater scale in 2016. 2016 into 2017 will be even more eventful than the previous year. This year carries with it a host of heavenly influences that have the potential to bring some of the biggest changes that we'll ever experience in our lifetime. Negative human emotions such as: hurt, distrust, anger etc. will come to the forefront, and be greatly magnified.
Also on the rise will be events causing greater anxiety, uncertainty, and even chaos in many places. Tensions, on various levels of the human experience: physical, spiritual, emotional, and mental will leave many wondering – what going on?
The scriptures warn of such times in Matthew 24:10: “And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another”. In II Timothy 3:1-3: “But mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of righteousness, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of YHWH.””
Not even the Pope was able to keep his cool exterior in public. The following headlines highlight that negative human emotions are indeed on the rise. We’re seeing greater tension among those we should be calling neighbors, as well as among the nations:

In the 2016 Global Forecast we predicted that “Europe will have its share of problems, especially connected to their refugee situation. Pay close attention to Germany; their government and elements of their refugee situation have the potential to evolve into possible attacks.” The refugee problem will prove to add to the other major elements that are set up to greatly destabilize the west this year.

Russia and China are symbolically considered as the kings of the East referred to in the Book of Revelations; and the way is being set for them to rise as the global powers, as the USA is led away to be sacrificed. Global tensions of the year will not escape Russia, but they are being set to gradually rise in power as the problems unfold, especially the problems in the Middle East. The sacrifice of the US has begun, however it will not be completed during 2016.

We stated that “this election cycle has certainly not been the norm, and it is likely that it will not become normal without outside intervention.” There were more republican candidates running for president than ever before. One candidate seems to defy all conventional rules of the process, and yet remains untouched. Up till this time, anyone else practicing such shenanigans would have been removed from the race. Scandal, bad behavior, and attempts at sabotage have all made their appearance during this campaign cycle:

Here we have it – the February updates. The era of prophetic intervention is upon us, it’s time to prepare. If we have the ability to prepare physically, becoming self-sufficient should become our number one priority. This entails becoming less detectable, and independent of the entities that currently govern this world at this time. Physical preparation is good, but nothing takes the place of spiritual preparation. Spiritual preparation cleanses us so that we do not perish (die in our errors). Being spiritually prepared doesn’t guarantee that physical death will not come; for indeed it will. The difference is that we gain passage to our source, as we are no longer cut off from our Creator. A wise man once wrote: “The wise and prudent see trouble coming and hide (prepares) himself” (Proverbs 22:3 and 27:12). Noah was a wise and prudent man. He saw trouble coming, and prepared by building an ark to protect himself and his family (Hebrews 11:7). Pretty much everyone who reads their bible knows Noah for building the ark. What is not commonly focused on is that while he was building the ark, he also preached the message of righteousness (II Peter 2:5). His goal was to not only save his family, but inspire others to prepare so that they too would be saved. However, the message fell on deaf ears then, much as it does today with many. The message clearly stated that: “as in the days of Noah, so will it be at the coming of the son of man.” (Matthew 24:37-39). Due to misunderstanding of Holy Scriptures it is commonly thought that no one will know the day or the hour of the coming of the Son of Man. This is true, but only to a certain point. Back in Noah’s day, when YHWH was ready, He revealed the time of trouble (His day) to Noah. He promised to reveal the time of trouble (His day) to the ministers of His LIGHT (Isaiah 42:9) that they may declare His day (Psalm 9:11; 118:17; 145:6-13 Isaiah 21:6; 46:10; 66:19; Matthew 5:14-16). It is worth noting here that when we speak of The Day of Yahweh, or His day, we are not talking about a 24 hour period, but rather a predetermined period of time. In order to receive this insider information, we turn from our own ways, agreeing to keep His covenant. As part of the agreement we receive a spirit that gives us the ability to watch for the signs of His day. If we do cooperate in this manner He will also reveal the time of trouble to us that the day will not come upon us like a thief in the night (Revelation 3:2-3). We have declared what we see coming for 2016; each month we post a monthly update for all to see what is coming according to the signs of the times.
